Velious Tailoring

All Velious tailoring recipes other than the crystalline silk require the use of the Coldain Tanners Kit instead of a normal sewing kit/loom. (The crystalline silk can use any sewing kit)

A lot of discussion, some of it very heated, has been stirred up due to the tailored items in Velious. Many folks who are totally new to this site are coming here in hopes of getting some of the amazing items that can be made, and really have no clue how difficult a task it can be to craft these lovely items. The path to grandmaster tailoring via these items is difficult, painful, and quite expensive, and not one to be undertaken lightly. Given the number of folks venting on the message boards about this, I can't stress the previous statement enough. There is no fast, cheap way to get your skill high enough to reliably make the fine furs and the velium leathers. Much like cultural smithing, you are going to spend a lot of time, effort and money on this, should you decide to pursue this. If you are simply drooling over a piece or two of armor, it is highly recommended that you find someone who is already working on their tailoring skill and help them get their skill up, instead of starting your own tailoring career from scratch. Advice for the non-tailor who is helping collect items to get pieces made can be found at this link.

For those looking for the class-specific armors, visit the leathers section. Those looking at the all/all caps, cloaks and moccasins, visit the furs section. Those looking for the crystalline silks, and the pure-caster ice burrower silk armor, will find it, unsurprisingly, in the silks section. For the non-tailors who are drooling over this armor, visit this lovely guide for information on the difficulty/expenses you will incur in providing the needed parts for your tailor to attempt this for you.
